These Two Gurleys Were In Jail, Now They're Part Of Jailhouse Roster Nuggets!

It's rare to see somebody charged with "disorderly house" in Minneapolis. I can't remember the last time I saw it on the jail roster, and I check that roster all the time. But I guess it happens, sometimes. It happened to Helen Diana Gurley, DOB 10/23/62, who reportedly lives at 704 Penn Ave. (North) and who is listed on the jailhouse roster as being picked up on a bench warrant for "disorderly house."

The roster also says...

...the state of the charge is "sentence completed" and she's free on $300 bail.

Helen Gurley has quite a rap sheet, and here it is. Not all this represents convictions.

In jail at the same time and listing the same address on the roster is another person with the same surname; Laquita S. Gurley, DOB 2/18/91. Laquita was apparently picked up on a bench warrant involving a movable property charge. She has been convicted twice of theft charges, as follows.
